Becoming a great leader
Through ten clear and compelling chapters, Phil Pringle addresses the essential qualities of leadership. Share how to become a servant (Ch. 1), conquer like a soldier (Ch. 3), discover the keys to success (Ch. 4), lead strong (Ch. 5), show a confident personality (Ch. 8 ), becoming spiritually great (Ch. 9), and much more!
Successful Leadership
Phil Pringle is informative, engaging, and relational in his presentation. He efficiently uses quotes and illustrations to inspire and teach readers. Speaking of easement, he conveys the thoughts of Jim Rohn: “…one well-cared-for customer can be more valuable than $10,000 worth of advertising.” He suggests we take care of the customers!
After engaging readers, Pringle begins challenging people to take it to a new level. He states: “Strength is not optional but imperative in leaders. People will not follow weak and worthless leaders. They line up behind the brave, the strong, the warriors.” And, “The world lies at the feet of the disciplined person.”
Phil doesn’t promise easy solutions. He presents a clear analytical path to success. He explains: “Leadership does not automatically guarantee success. However, success will give you influence.” And, “Most of the opportunities come unlabeled… ‘get-rich-quick’ schemes… the so-called opportunities are designed to separate the gullible from their money.”
Pringle taunts his audience with challenging Scripture, relaying Jeremiah 8:20, “The harvest is past, the summer is ended, and we are not saved!” He suggests, “Among the most tragic verses…the cry of the lost…”
Using a great leader as inspiration (Jesus Christ), Phil Pringle skillfully motivates readers to progress, announcing, “Jesus went from follower to leader and his wonderful life purpose began to unfold.” He also inspires with pithy and provocative ideas like, “It’s always better to underproject and overperform.” Humility wins.
